Z Search coil

Hi All
anyone got some setting for the new coil?
cheers Marty

No Dave my question is not how many of the new NF12" coils are out and since the 1st batch is only 200
Im not asking for a comparison between any x or other coils
I guess Im asking any of the 200 owners out there ,that have this coil what settings they are using nothing more
cheers Marty

Lesgold, who I believe is an experienced Z user is using the same settings as per his standard Z coil for the area they were detecting. ( from memory I think he was the person I asked for advice re settings 5 or 6 years ago when I first purchased my Z)

see his comments Dec17th.

Yes that was a nice write up ,but no settings
I guess one just has to play with the settings in the field

Hi Marty, you could send Les a PM and ask for his settings, I don't think he would consider them a secret.

I would but cant remember my user name Lol

Marty, I got to use a 12” NF Z Search test coil.  Settings I used were:-
High Yield
Difficult
Threshold level - 28
Threshold pitch - 40 (personal)
Volume limit - 10 (headphones) - later reduced this to 9
Sensitivity - 14
Volume - 8

Audio smoothing - Off
Ground balance mode - Semi-auto

I have done a few YouTube videos using the test coil.  Link to channel under my signature.  Hope this helps.

Hi Annie, Ever since owning the Z, I have used HY/Difficult, now trying HY/Normal (when I remember), ie dont really change my settings, just the standard EMI and ground balance, looks like you change your settings, but what about Normal and General checks?

Thanks

Peter

G’day Peter, I only had test coil for a short time.  In the area I detected, my experience with Normal & General were very noisy with the Minelab 14”so I didn’t try them, with Z Search 12”.

Thank you for the info makes a lot more sense now

Thinking about getting one of these coils so any info testing and pros , cons for the 12” would be great keep us informed

Ditto, but I am not rushing in, glad I held back buying the Z, 19" coil even at the cheaper price for initial Z buyers..
